Abstract: Certain embodiments are directed to techniques (e.g., a device, a method, a memory or non-transitory computer readable medium storing code or instructions executable by one or more processors) for communication techniques between an electronic device (e.g., a smart speaker, a smart TV, a smart appliance, etc.) and one or more mobile devices (e.g., a smartphone, a tablet, a wearable device etc.). Techniques can vary the rate the mobile device responds to ranging messages from the smart speaker based on one or more factors. These factors can include a state of the mobile device (e.g., awake or asleep), mobile device orientation (e.g., face down), application state (e.g., music App active), motion of the mobile device (e.g., at rest for period of time), and a range (distance/angle) between the mobile device and the speaker to conserve battery life. The range to the electronic device can activate one or more smart speaker features on the mobile device.

Abstract: The first mobile device transmits (602) a request to establish outgoing pairwise ranging sessions with other mobile devices of the group. Each of the mobile devices of the group of mobile devices can establish ranging sessions with the other mobile devices (604). Each mobile device can act as both an initiating device and a responding device for the ranging session. The first mobile device detects (606) one or more redundant ranging sessions the mobile devices. The first mobile device identifies (608) whether to keep or terminate each of the one or more redundant ranging sessions based on a common criterion. The first mobile device performs (610) ranging using remaining ranging sessions with each of the other mobile devices.
